The Pirate Next Door

Mayfair, London, 1810: Alexandra Alastair, a respectable young English widow, wonders if she dare add the new viscount who's moved in next door to her list of potential husbands. It's whispered far and wide that he gained his fortune as a pirate and came home to claim his title.

The way Grayson smiles at Alexandra whenever they pass in the street—sinful, blood-warming—turns her inside out.

When Alexandra hears shouting in the house next door, and the viscount's life being threatened, she rushes over just in time to save Grayson from being killed by his greatest enemy.

Thus is Alexandra pulled into the adventures of Grayson Finley, former pirate and terror of the seas. Grayson has made a bargain with the devil (otherwise known as the pirate hunter James Ardmore) to ensure the safety of his daughter. He'll do anything to keep young Maggie safe, but when Alexandra saves his life, with one look into her eyes, Grayson starts to drown.

How can he keep both his daughter and now the beautiful Mrs. Alastair from the clutches of his enemy? And how can he prevent himself falling deeply in love with her?
